If NO and we are unlucky enough to lose a processor, will we be out of luck concerning licensing assuming we can find a replacement processor?
Thank you! | | | | Joined: Jan 2010 Posts: 923 Moderator-Toshiba | Moderator-Toshiba Joined: Jan 2010 Posts: 923 | No it is only programming data that is backed up to the SD card which can be restored to a new processor if required.
All licensing is held in the processor and is non transferable as they are locked to the MAC address of the processor.
Regards Carl

Will need to stay with an on-premise digital system. Anyone have thoughts on manufacturer's? Looking at mitel or nec. Never touched an nec but have mitel experience from back in day so leaning towards Mitel. | | | | Joined: Aug 2012 Posts: 90 Member | Member Joined: Aug 2012 Posts: 90 | Both Mitel and NEC are great systems but it really depends on what your needs are. More importantly, you should shop around for local dealers of these systems as the support of the systems will be more important in the long run. | | | | Joined: Aug 2002 Posts: 4,913 Administrator | Administrator Joined: Aug 2002 Posts: 4,913 | I think a license move request can still be done via FYI by a dealer. And Chris as a long time Toshiba dealer I can guarantee a hosted replacement for the Toshiba. That's all I have been doing since Toshiba called it quits. | | | | Joined: Jun 2005 Posts: 2,574 Member | Member Joined: Jun 2005 Posts: 2,574 | I think a license move request can still be done via FYI by a dealer.

There are some requirements to transfer a license for a CIX processor. It had to be a new unlicensed processor, the old processor had to be shipped back, and you had to pay a "Scrap" fee. Since they are no longer making new processors, and you can't generate licenses for a new system, you may have to ask Toshiba if they are still willing to do that, I was able to transfer a license from an IPEdge version 1.6 to the 1.7 virtual licenses. Our company has also gone completely Hosted VoIP. | | |
